I see.  My recently purchased GTI is on Dunlop SP SPORT 9000 225/45 R17 ZR.  Anybody got an opinion on these?  I haven't driven it on anything else, so I've no frame of reference.

Just popped into see my tyre fitter as they havent arrived yet. He has told me that he has the GSD2???coming in. As they have replaced the F1's.

Just wondering if this is the case??

The suggestion of Kumho KU31's is interesting.
My past experience of using Kumhos to replace oem Pirellis, Michelins etc on quick cars is entirely positive.
They grip, are tough, wear well and are great value.

I'll try them next time.  (at £67 each you can replace them with plenty of tread left on)

Would probably have looked at them tbh... but as the car is going back end of aug I presume they will want the tyres to be replaaced with a similar priced brand they came on. Oh well..... 6months to do as much damage to them as i can Will let you know how i get on once they are worn in

Dunlop Sportmaxx are pretty cack, they seem to be very keen to wear prematurely on the inside edge (had my alignment checked so not that) and average handling wise in the wet and dry.

Falken FK452 FTW.  Amazing tyre for the price.  Highly rated by most who use them.

That is a very old tyre, he must be wrong, thye previous F1 was the GS-D3, a big improvement over the D2, the D3 is now superceded by the F1 Assy, accept nothing else. The D3 is end of life, I think he probably means D3
